Huawei Unveils Three Innovative Digital Fiber Solutions to Accelerate the Development of Digital LATAM

At the LATAM Fiber Broadband Leaders Summit in Sao Paulo, Huawei launched three new fiber technologies: Trouble-Free ONT, Smart Wi-Fi 2.0, and Fiber Iris to enable the Digital LATAM.

Daniel Zhang, Vice President of Huawei’s Latin America Marketing and Solution Department, noted that the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of Latin American fiber subscribers is currently about 17%. Latin American operators, like their counterparts elsewhere in the world, promoted more scenario-based broadband service to meet users’ digital home requirements. “New home services bring new requirements to fiber network. Better home experience, lesser home visit and faster trouble shooting are the top three concerns for Latin American operators.” Huawei’s three innovative digital fiber solutions will help operators build more intelligent and efficient fiber network.

Huawei Trouble-Free ONT is the industry’s first user self-optimized ONT (optical network terminal). It provides unique 7dBi antenna to increase home Wi-Fi coverage by 18% and uses Wi-Fi algorithm optimization to increase home Wi-Fi speed by 10%. Meanwhile, innovative user self-optimization helps operators reduce home visits by 20%.

Huawei Smart Wi-Fi 2.0 upgrades terminal level analysis to app level analysis, ensuring the quality of FTTH (fiber to the home) experience. It provides over 80% app poor-quality analysis with innovative AEC (access edge computing) OLT (optical line terminal) board, helping operators reduce subscriber churn rate. Smart Wi-Fi 2.0 also supports precise user portrait to help operators achieve market upselling.

Huawei Fiber Iris is a unique Huawei breakthrough technology that provides visible and intelligent capabilities for passive ODN. Compared with traditional invisible and black ODN, Fiber Iris marks each ODN port with an individual label to achieve remote acceptance and fault location. Greatly simplifying network maintenance, the fault location precision is within 2 meters.

During the event, Kim Jin, Vice President of Huawei’s Optical Business Product Line, said: “Huawei continuously increases its R&D investments in the optical domain, and as a result has been leading the development of global optical network industry for a long time. Huawei’s innovative 400G/800G, Alps-WDM, Flex-PON, DQ ODN series optical solutions have been widely deployed in global operators’ networks. In the future, we will work closely with Latin American operators to promote digital fiber innovations and jointly build Digital LATAM.”
